Located on the corner of Rideau Street and Sussex Drive in Ottawa, Metropolitain Brasserie Restaurant offers a delightful dining experience that transports you to the streets of Paris. On a scorching Monday evening, my companion and I had the pleasure of enjoying their inviting patio seating, which provided a perfect setting to unwind and indulge in their delectable cuisine.Despite the restaurant being quite crowded, we were pleasantly surprised to find numerous empty seats available when we arrived at 7:30 PM. This allowed us to select a comfortable spot and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere while basking in the warm summer evening.We opted for the fish and chips and the club sandwich from the menu, and both dishes surpassed our expectations. The fish and chips were impeccably prepared—crispy, golden-brown batter encased succulent fish that flaked apart with each bite. Accompanied by perfectly cooked fries and a tangy tartar sauce, this classic dish satisfied our cravings with its delightful flavors.The club sandwich, another standout, was a harmonious blend of savory ingredients. Generously stacked with layers of tender roasted chicken, crispy bacon, fresh lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and creamy mayo, each bite delivered a symphony of textures and tastes. It was a delicious testament to the kitchen’s skill in creating satisfying and well-executed dishes.The service at Metropolitain Brasserie Restaurant was commendable. The staff members were attentive, friendly, and efficient, ensuring that our dining experience was enjoyable from start to finish. They offered helpful recommendations and promptly attended to our needs, contributing to the overall positive impression of the restaurant.One of the highlights of our evening was the ambiance. Sitting on the patio allowed us to soak up the lively atmosphere of Rideau Street and Sussex Drive. We enjoyed people-watching as passersby strolled along, adding a touch of urban charm to our dining experience. The blend of the bustling surroundings and the relaxed patio setting created a unique and enjoyable ambiance that enhanced our evening.This was my second visit to Metropolitain Brasserie Restaurant, and it certainly won’t be my last. I highly recommend visiting on a summer evening to take advantage of their inviting patio. Whether you’re looking to enjoy a leisurely meal or simply unwind with a refreshing drink, this restaurant offers an enticing combination of delectable cuisine, attentive service, and a vibrant atmosphere. Embrace the spirit of Paris in the heart of Ottawa at Metropolitain Brasserie Restaurant, and allow yourself to be transported to a world of culinary delight.

Beautiful outdoor dining spot. We stopped in for some brunch and cocktails before a show. Food was delicious and came out quickly despite being busy. Service was excellent.

I went with my partner to Metropolitain to celebrate our anniversary. We ordered a seafood platter and some drinks. The oysters, tuna and the mussels were amazing. The drinks were ok - nothing special. The location is nice and we were able to enjoy a nice time outside on the patio. Only downside is that the seafood platter took almost an hour to arrive, by which time we already finished our drinks and we were just waiting around. We were going to order more but we were ready to leave after the wait. Nevertheless we had a good time.

Had the duck Conti and the moules. They were very good.We ordered the shrimp appetizer special, mesquite grilled shrimp. We thought it was grilled. It turned out it was chilled" cocktail shrimp. $6 for four 16/20 size cocktail shrimps was a rip off. It wasn't even good. We were disappointed."

Overall quite satisfied didn't know what to expect but it's a very interesting menu. Food was relatively fast and quality was good. It was a great experience. Would come back to try other dishes.For the price it's the experience and presentation. This has earned their 4 stars.

Great place for brunch. My eggs Benedict were amazing, as was the burrata toast and the mushroom flatbread ordered in the table. Staff is friendly and service is fast, also they have live music which is very enjoyable.

Booked here for Father’s Day brunch, we always pass by and love the atmosphere with the outdoor seating and fairy lights.. it was a gloomy day so lights were on :) our server was a 10! Seriously super kind and helpful , my kids smiled every time she came to the table because of her kindness. We we’re happy they had kids meals and even the regular dishes they were so flexible to add things or omit others! Over all we had a very pleasant brunch here and would love to come back for another meal where they have live entertainment outdoor!

Title: Disappointing Experience.Review:I just visited for the first time, and unfortunately, my experience left me deeply disappointed and frustrated. Upon my arrival, I was shocked to learn that the restaurant staff had labeled me as intoxicated, solely based on my walk, which they deemed as “wobbly.”I was simply taking in the ambience of the place, admiring the beautiful lighting and taking pictures.. Crazy. The picture I took looks great however lol.I regret to say that I cannot recommend.

Went out with colleagues. The food was alright, the dessert was great. Ordered the duck poutine, the menu made it sound a lot more appetizing than it was. Very salty, two pieces of overcooked duck hidden between burnt and toasted leeks. The Brie was my favourite part of the plate. The drink was also a let down, especially for $15 for only one. Update: gave me food poisoning and was sick for the rest of the day&night
